When shopping at Kmart and the Warehouse for older boys (sizes 8-16), it is becoming increasingly hard to purchase clothing featuring any colors other than dark and dreary shades. While the girls section is a virtual rainbow of colours with a plethora of inspiring designs and positive sayings, the older boys section is like stepping into an uninspired, sad afterthought. Even the younger boys section features an array of creative, bright designs. Why is it that the older boys are not afforded the same options to have uplifting, happy, creative designs. 

My 9 year old son who recently went to Kmart said "It's like they don't want us to be happy". 

This petition is to encourage Kmart New Zealand and The Warehouse New Zealand to start stocking more bright, colourful and inspiring clothing for older boys in their stores.
